Description:
Solos And Shadows for String Quartet was composed by Karl Aage Rasmussen in 1983 for the Carl Nielsen Quartet. Manuscript copy.
Solos and Shadows (composed in Rome, 1983) is about the individual and the mass, the melody and the chorus or - in a memorable phrase of the composer - "whispers and shouts"; and it's about how these opposing entities can deceptively change about, the one becoming the other. Throughout most of the quartet there are constant changes - or rater, interruptions of mood, colour and tempo; before a final section which, Beethoven-style carries the music away in a breathlessly fast tempo.
